    Has so much potential, but requiring it to always have an internet connection has now been proven a disaster. They say they want the game to be playable without micro transactions and players not have to grind - and yet all of the best cars are really expensive. Was a higher score, but ruined now.

    I paid full price for this game, expecting to drive over the nordschleife with my favorite cars like the Lamborgini Diablo, Countach, Ferrari F40 and McLaren F1.

    But what an illusion is that. Almost 10 hours into the game I’ve not yet unlocked the nordschleife and only have like 300.000 credits. As someone who played GT3 & GT4 I know progress takes takes time but in GT7 it’s just abnormal. I’m 34 and have full time job and a family, I don’t have the same spare time I had as a single teenager to spend just to get the credits to be able to buy the cars I want.

    The cars I would like to drive cost millions of credits and are only available after invites which expire. They seem as unreachable ingame as in real life.

    After the last update in which they even made it harder to earn credits ingame the developer made a statement that they want to reflect the real life value and rarity of these cars.

    Why? This is a game, a driving simulator, not a real life simulator. I play games to escape from real life and enjoy things I can’t or won’t do in real life.

    I don’t play any F2P games due the push towards monetisation and I refuse to buy any credits for real money in a game I’ve bought for €80,-.

    I’ve lost the appetite for this game in the state it is in and I’ve put it aside. I picked up Horizon Forbidden West again, hopefully GT7 will be fixed when I finish that. And if they don’t fix this it will be the last Gran Turismo I’ve played and I’ll wait with buying any next Sony game until it’s clear that they’re not ruined by the bad management which screwed up this game.

    I was hyped. A lot. And I got burned again. There's a good game somewhere in GT7. Under layers of whore mongering monetization. This series just got GTA Online treatment. Every single developer and their grandma should be crying from shame. But instead they're probably sitting on a beach in Bahamas.

We cannot be quiet for a game that make it impossible to buy certain cars because they are the equivalent of 400 races or almost 200 euros of microtransactions. This is much worse than GTA Online because in GTA you still have a 50 hours single player campaign where you purchase everything with in-game payouts. Not to mention the lack of content after you complete the Café stuff and the fact than you can't use for Race Events a lot of cars you earn during the campaign.
    That's a shame. I think a lot of people will be abandon GT Series after that.
    For the first time I'm agree with a Review Bombing movement, Sony should understand that we are gamers and not only money machines, especially for a full price game like GT7.

    The recent update also added to the already bad micro-transaction system. Payouts for many races were decreased even more than they already had been. This makes getting any of the $10million+ cars impossible to obtain without a massive grind or purchasing be ingame currency of the PS store.
    Once the servers finally came back online, users received no compensation. All they got was a condescending letter from Kaz that explained that the payout decreases were to improve the game.
    Whilst this game could be good, I can't see Sony & Polyphony doing what's required to fix it.

    Some of the most atrocious micro transactions I’ve ever seen in a video game. Some cars can cost anywhere from 10-20 million credits which is extremely unrealistic to grind for, especially for a single car. So if you don’t wanna grind you’d have to spend $20 just for 2,000,000 credits which would make a 20,000,000 credit car $200 in real world money…. Absolutely disgusting.

Physics on dirt tracks are totally off. Traction breakaway physics on pavement are a bit slippery. Kinda like always driving in the rain. The A.I. cars will purposely ram, and pit maneuver you, probably to take away your clean race bonuses. Severely disappointed. Been playing religiously since gt1. Sincerely hoping they fix it…

    Highest paying race: $50,000
    Time to complete race: 7mins
    Time to get car: 43 hours Real $ price to buy car: $280CAD

    However, there other annoying issues: Much of the car selection is direct carry over from previous games and it’s missing key supercars cars like: 918 spyder, p1, speedtail, 720s, 765lt, plaid, lfa, senna, 812, gt2rs, 911 turbo s & more. Most sportscars and supercars are dated with few current gen ones so they can reuse assets from previous games shamelessly. Despite omitting key real cars, there’s a number of fake cars with ridiculous impossible specifications really degrading the institution of simulation it tries to achieve. Drag racing did not make a return despite what they said. You can no longer get 2 player replays from the race screen. The race your garage car does not allow you to select specific garage cars. Ray tracing is only available in replays. Water puddle animations are really low budget and disturbing which contrasts an otherwise stellar presentation notably.

After playing a variety of titles such as sims like iRacing and arcade styler like F1 titles, I realized that I am more of a casual arcade racer even after spending $$$ in sim racing equipment. I have heard so much for the Gran Turismo series, so I decided to buy a PS5, GT7 pre-order, and a new Fanatec DD pro (since my more-than-satisfactory TM TC PCI've been doing sim racing for years.

    If you want macro transactions to be included, don't charge $70 for the base price!!!!

    This switch and bait update made this game "Macro" transaction focused. I already spent $97 (after tax) for the founder edition. They cut race rewards, took away the ability to sell cars, and made legendary cars so expensive. Now if I want to earn credits, it will be more of a grind than iRacing unless I want to just fork out money over and over!

    Shame on me for trusting the Gran Turismo name, pre-ordering this game, and spending the money to go towards a more "casual" sim racing experience. Completely back fired!

    Fan des Gran Tourismo depuis la première heure, j’ai vraiment envie de vomir sur cette version « service » qui pousse clairement à sortir sa carte bleu après avoir payé 80 euros. Pas de course Gr1 ni Gr2 à part en Arcade avec des sommes dérisoires à gagner. PlayStation studios sont tellement décevants dernièrement!

    I've been a fan of these games since I was a kid but I think this about does it for me. It all started off so well until we were hit with ridiculously inflated microtransactions. Not to mention that it's an online only game.... I can't get my $100 back but trust me I wont be spending any time doing weeks and weeks of excessive grinding with little reward.

    Incredibly greedy actions from the developers. €70 for a game that funnels you to micro transactions and has a pitifully small single player campaign. The developer thinks they can turn customers who paid full price in permanent cash cows.

    The game is selling at a premium price and still uses nasty tricks to make the player community spend more money to get access to all the content in the game. Besides that the game is only fully playable when connected to the internet and GT servers are not down. Super disappointed in this game and devs

    The real credit card simulator.

    Unfortunately, I was one of those that fell for the marketing hype and rave critic reviews surrounding this game which no doubt shrouded the stark reality of MTX driven game design. I've created an account on Metacritic just to warn other prospective gamers not to fall for the same trap as myself and many others - there are plenty of other racing sims
    The real credit card simulator.

    Unfortunately, I was one of those that fell for the marketing hype and rave critic reviews surrounding this game which no doubt shrouded the stark reality of MTX driven game design. I've created an account on Metacritic just to warn other prospective gamers not to fall for the same trap as myself and many others - there are plenty of other racing sims more worthy of your hard-earned cash.

    To further add insult to injury, what is mostly a SP game cannot be played without an online connection, which is fine if Polyphony Digital were competent enough to keep their own servers up without 30 hour downtimes. This developer has clearly never heard of a "roll-back" plan, and was more concerned about the MTX it would be losing.

    To top of it all off, Kazunori's apology must surely contend as the most pathetic excuse for a developer's actions. Just as Kazunori's statement skirts around facts, this review will also glance over the good that the game had potential to offer.

    The only way to save face now is to pull a U-Turn and:
    - Allow SP to be played offline
    - Allow selling of cars (just like in the real world) - is this not a simulator?
    - Buff race rewards
    - Buff daily marathon rewards
    - Introduce daily challenges with increased rewards
    - If you insist on keeping MTX, bring credit to cost ratio in-line with predecessors
    - Justify why some cars are valued more than 3x the cost of the game itself?
    - Remove time limited legendary / invite only cars pressuring player base into MTX, particularly those that are vulnerable
    - Remove 20M credit cap on earned credits, given that single cars cost up to 20M. Interestingly, no cap on MTX credit

    This is my first and last foray into the GT universe.

    Amazing racing game, the only thing that lets it down is the credit payout! Dualsense is really good for this game if you don’t have a wheel! Best racer I’ve played, FH5 was good but I prefer more realistic racing! Had some of the best online races I’ve ever had in GT7! Highly recommend, would be a 10 if credit payout was evened out and was abit higher! 9/10

    Stop micro-transactions !! I've paid ¥8650 for this game and Polyphony cut the rewards credit and push players to pay another ¥12000 for "one" car !!!? That's ridiculous. How greedy are you, Polyphony? And you better keep GT7 server run forever because maybe I will play GT7 after several years if my PS5 is still working. This is not a free social game. We players paid full price for GT7.

    As a life-long fan of the Gran Turismo series, it saddens me to witness the desecration of the storied franchise with GT7.

While the underlying driving experience is excellent, the absolutely atrocious MTX practices and Kaz's continued delusion that the best way to honour legendary cars is by making them unobtainable in game without hours and hours of repetitive grind or paying for MTX is destroying the game and the series' reputation. For example, the McLaren F1 is available in the Legendary Dealer for only a few days, but costs 18.5m credits. This equates to about 21 hours of grind or paying $185US. Ridiculous. These are the worst MTX tactics I have ever seen. The game is also crippled by a bland, unfinished single player mode, baffling UI design choices and the always-online requirements. Online modes are almost unplayable with current server instability.

    It truly pains me to say as a huge GT series fan, GT7 is not worth playing.

    BUT
    After a solid start, while almost finishing the whole campaign (menu books), I realized that rolling starts from the back of the pack without any chance of qualifying aren't real racing like. The payouts for the races were ok offline, but after spending about 400k on a r32 skyline to be competitive in sport mode (online), and getting 18k as payout for first place I feel robbed.
    They nerfed other races payouts in single player mode with the idea of pushing the player towards microtransactions... The option is always given, right under the payout screen.
    Since yesterdays update I'm not able to access the game anymore, because you are forced to have internet and a connection to the servers all the time. Which is absolutely nuts and reminds me of the NEED FOR SPEED from 2015, and EA learned from that, apparently. PD is 7 years late like the internet explorer and forces it's players to be constantly connected to the playstation network and their servers. Very customer friendly.
    If you're thinking of buying the game. Get the PCSX2 emulator and a copy of gran turismo 4, and you'll get a finished game which you're surely be happy with. And the crash mechanics are the same btw. For both titles. Or you can get your hands on Forza and not be forced to spend extra cash after buying the initial game for 80€...

    Maybe they will fix it, but I'm really disappointed for a legacy title, especially from a Sony "first hand" developer. Shame on you PolyPHONY Digital. Shame on the gaming industry and their constant push for micro transactions.
    THIS WEEK THEY PUT A LEGENDARY VEHICLE I THE LEGENDARY CARS MARKET, WHICH COSTS 18.5 MIL., THAT'S 185€ IN MICROTRANSACTIONS!!!

    With the latest Update they also decreased the amounts of credits u earn per Race, which already wasnt a lot to begin with.

    No Problem, you can just buy 2 Million credits for 20€!!!

    Which means 100€ for 1 **** Car.

    I actually enjoy the racing, apart from everything being grid start. Micro transactions are forced upon you by not allowing you to accumulate wealth when following the menus as the game leads you to do.
    Furthermore, you can't even sell cars that you don't want. HELLO I want to race not collect cars like they are pokemon!!!

    Gran Turismo 7 has a lot of good and plenty of great. The use of DualSense and the particularly well-tuned loading is exemplary, and there's a huge amount of work behind the game, with a lot of detail that's almost hard to believe at times. [Issue#318]

    Gran Turismo 7 brings to the tracks every single thing fans always wanted: the GT Mode everyone loves, plenty of customization options, car loads, classic scenarios and one of the best DualSense and 3D Audio experiences the PS5 has to offer. This is the best Gran Turismo experience we have ever seen in a long time.

    Gran Turismo 7 is a love letter to motorsport history and an impeccable technical showcase. The franchise's traditional formula gets good improvements, but it's still extremely true to its roots. One of the best racing series ever shines spectacularly on the PS5.
